How can I point my domain name to my home server's IP?

In order to set up an A (address) record for your domain please perform the following actions:

  • Sign in to your Namecheap account

  • Click Manage Domains and click on the domain you wish to set the A (address) record for
  • Click on All Host Records on the left (missing All Host Records option?)
  • Enter your IP address for both WWW and @ fields and choose the record type as A (Address).
